Support the Arts in Lake County! The Florida Arts License Plate Program was created by the Legislature in 1994. Funds collected through the sale of these specialty plates are distributed to the counties where the plates are sold and are used to support arts organizations, programs, and activities within that county.
Lake County receives money directly from the Department of Highway, Safety and Motor Vehicles. The Lake County arts and Culture Alliance is the designated recipient organization to administer funds that support arts activities within our county. Get yours today!

Mount Dora Center for the Arts is funded in part by United Arts of Central Florida, your local agency for the arts. We also receive support from Lake County, the Florida division of Arts and Culture, and the NEA.
